BENTONVILLE (AP) — Snow is in the forecast for far northwestern Arkansas.

The National Weather Service on Saturday issued a winter weather advisory for Benton and Carroll counties.

Forecasters said colder air was expected to move into the region Saturday night and that rain would change to snow by Sunday morning. By the middle of the day Sunday, the wintery precipitation is expected to shift northeast into Missouri.

The weather service says snow accumulation of between 1 and 3 inches is possible.

Roads may become slick and hazardous, especially on bridges and overpasses.

As storms moved through south Arkansas on Saturday, large amounts of hail fell in Crossett and Hamburg.
